Description

Ok...Dec 21st is the day - just 6 arcminutes between Jupiter and Saturn. Conjunction happens every 20 years BUT so close it will be again in 2080 (!), so quite a time to wait for.

You can clearly see the oval look of Saturn (due to the rings) and 3 out of 4 Galilean Moons around Jupiter.
